just because it's easy to do doesnt mean it's correct.  i'm looking
for the correct answer here, not the quick & dirty & forget about it.

perhaps uio_mmap_physical() should look like:
static int uio_mmap_physical(struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{
#ifdef pgprot_noncached
    struct uio_device *idev = vma->vm_private_data;
    int mi = uio_find_mem_index(vma);
    if (mi < 0)
        return -EINVAL;

    vma->vm_flags |= VM_IO | VM_RESERVED;

    vma->vm_page_prot = pgprot_noncached(vma->vm_page_prot);

    return remap_pfn_range(vma,
                   vma->vm_start,
                   idev->info->mem[mi].addr >> PAGE_SHIFT,
                   vma->vm_end - vma->vm_start,
                   vma->vm_page_prot);
#else
    return -EFAULT;
#endif
}
